We help you build the ability to improve. We help you make change

stick!

We want self-organization. We want to get hold of our employees potential in order

to create value! So we believe in…

“Respect people”

“People and interactions over processes and tools”

We also believe discipline is crucial!

By being trusted we commit.

By committing we take on accountability.

By being accountable we take ownership.

By ownership we create results and sustainable value.

We do it by;• Establishing the PDCA cycle

• Driving envisioning to establish direction.• Grasping the current condition of your organization or part of it.• By knowing direction and current condition we set the next target condition.• Building in the PDCA cycle to your current way of working (work cycle planning,

implementation and retrospective).• Train your staff in the simple work cycle.• Train your staff in Agile and Lean values in order to identify improvements in the

current process by looking at it in value stream and waste reduction perspective.

“Culture beats strategy every time”- Randy Pennington

We support you in creating culture in a very practical manner. In order to change we need to establish new patterns. Patterns are created by repetition. We systemize the pattern of working with improvements and by doing so we secure that change stick!

“Bi-products” of our services
